Is it possible to integrate MLS and IDX with ASP.NET MVC 5 website?


I need to integrate IDX MLS into a real estate website. Also I want to know how to implement commercial and residential search?


Solution

  • You would use something like this:

    Typically, a multiple listing service (MLS) uses a technology called RETS to serve listing data. In order to use RETS, you'll need to know the host/login URL the MLS provides and have an account with them for access. Then you can make calls to their RETS/IDX feed using the library above.

    Here's the librets documentation: http://www.dis.com/NAR/libRETS_Dev_Guide.html

    If I may, please let me provide more detail about these different acronyms:

    MLS - Multiple Listing Service

    IDX - Internet Data Exchange

    RETS - Real Estate Transaction Standard
